User Task with boundary message event

boekhold — Thu, 19 Feb 2015 14:24:30 GMT

Hi,(see below for process definition, as generated by Activiti Explorer from 5.17)I have a process with a User Task "Approve", and on that user task I have configured a Boundary Message Event, waiting for an "InterruptMessage". I'm trying to trigger this Boundary Message Event based on Message Name

ps. Seems my copy/paste of the BPMN XML file is screwed up… I'll attach it here.

For the first point I mentioned (the lookup for executions that are waiting for a specific message), this seems to be caused by the fact that the Message Name is changed by Activiti Modeler if you export/import the model, there's a namespace added to the message name. Also see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ACT-2198.

And the second point (cancel activity), this is covered by http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ACT-2188. There's a similar issue with Boundary Signal Catching events as well, see http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/ACT-2199.

I have similar problem. I can't get the activiti cancelled once the boundary message event is fired.

After boundary message event is fired I have two user tasks active, the one that should have been cancelled and the new one.

Please advise on how to set effectively cancelActiviti=true on boundary message event while you find a solution.

We'll look into this and come back and update this post.

Thanks,

I've fixed the message and signal boundary event issue with the cancel activity property. You should be able to set the correct value in the Modeler now and the import should also work.

Best regards,

Awesome, all my bugs fixed. Are there any plans already for a 5.18 release?

Not yet planned currently, but since the last one was in december it'll be next month or the month after if all goes well.

Of course, you can always build from source too.
